Eggless Banana Cake recipe is eggless and vegan too! For some reason I love eggless cakes as I am not too fond of egg odor in the cakes. This recipe is easy and could also be called as low fat banana cake.
Bananas were over riped so baking cake was the best option. Over ripe bananas have some great health benefits it fights cancer, curbs indigestion and great to make dessert 😉
My hubby loves banana cakes so this was made specially for him. He gulped down half of the cake as soon as it was baked. He didn’t even realized it was an eggless cake.
The texture of the eggless banana cake is soft, spongy and also nutty. I have added some pecans, pistachios and cashew but nuts are optional. The recipe is so easy even a kid could make easily under supervision.
The cake was loved by hubby as well as his office mates. I loved them too. You could eat the cake as it is or even frost with cream or chocolate. Â I would just slice the cake and eat with a hot cup of tea or coffee.

Subrat says
Hi,
I followed it word by word and it came out nice, but not that soft and spongy. Not sure what I did wrong, how long should we fold it? Also I did it in a Microwave in Convection mode (no pre-heat options there).
Thanks
maria says
Subrat preheating makes a lot of difference. Secondly you should not fold too much otherwise the cake won’t rise. hope this helps you.
